In today’s world, no nonprofit organization would think twice about collecting, and hopefully analyzing, information about their donors. So too, with website traffic. For how else can one effectively judge site visitors’ demographics and interests?

How can we expect to have serious, well-managed Jewish Organizations providing important services when they tie their own hands and we automatically consign them to lower-class status?
